In addition to celebrating its first anniversary this month, Aeroplan’s eStore has received the runner up award for Best New Publisher of the Year as part of the Golden Link Awards competition by LinkShare, a leading provider of full-service online marketing solutions specializing in the areas of Search Marketing, Lead Generation and Affiliate Marketing.
Aeroplan’s eStore was nominated along with Bank of America from the U.S. and SkimLinks from the U.K. The runner up award by LinkShare comes right on the heels of another major award in outstanding sales performance when the eStore achieved the status of “CJ Performer” from the Commission Junction affiliate network earlier this year.
Launched in June 2008, the eStore offers Aeroplan Members an opportunity to EARN Aeroplan Miles by shopping online through the Aeroplan eStore. The eStore features over 160 retailers such as Apple Store Canada, Chapters.Indigo, Dell Canada & Land’s End as well car and hotel partners such as Avis, Holiday Inn, Sheraton and Marriott. Members can find special offers on a weekly basis from over 12 different product categories including clothing, jewellery, books, music, electronics, activities, entertainment and even flowers. Recently, the Aeroplan eStore has added Armani Exchange, Barnes & Noble, bebe, eBay.ca, LEGO and Rail Europe to its growing roster of retail partners.
Shopping online through Aeroplan eStore can earn members up to 3 Aeroplan Miles for every $1 spent (depending on the retailer offer); even double that if they pay with one of the Aeroplan affiliated financial cards. For example, a member can earn 1,400 Aeroplan Miles purchasing an Apple MacBook Pro laptop and if they use their Aeroplan affiliated credit card, they would earn an additional mile per every dollar spent (that’s a total of 2,800 Miles).
Aeroplan continually evolves its lineup of accumulation partners that members can earn miles with. For example, Members can now earn miles when they enroll in natural gas and electricity contracts with Direct Energy. Depending on the energy products they purchase, members may be entitled to earn anywhere from 2,500 - 10,000 miles upon registering for a multi-year contract. Aeroplan also recently expanded its travel partners with the addition of TAM Airlines of Brazil. Aeroplan Members can accumulate Aeroplan Miles for travel with TAM, bringing the total number of airline partners to 32.
